TWENTY-FOUR TEAMS TO PARTICIPATE IN SAMSUNG NBA SUMMER LEAGUE 2014

Posted on May 27, 2014

NEW YORK,May 27, 2014 - Twenty-four teams,
including the Utah Jazz, which will be making its first appearance, will
compete in this year’s Samsung NBA Summer League July 11-21, at the Thomas
& Mack Center and COX Pavilion on the campus of the University of Nevada
Las Vegas.

The Jazz will join 22 other NBA teams and a team of NBA Development
League select players in a tournament-style format to crown the Samsung NBA
Summer League Champion. Teams will compete in three preliminary round games
from July 11-15, before being seeded in a tournament running through the
Championship Game on July 21. Each team is guaranteed to play at least five
games.

This summer, 10 of the 12 teams that own Lottery picks in the
2014 NBA Draft presented by State Farm will take the court at Samsung NBA Summer
League, including the Cleveland Cavaliers, Milwaukee Bucks and Philadelphia
76ers, who are slated to make the top three picks in this year's Draft. Each
team is expected to choose from an impressive crop of prospects that includes Australia's
Dante Exum, Duke's Jabari Parker, Joel Embiid and Andrew Wiggins from Kansas,
and Kentucky's Julius Randle. Samsung NBA Summer League will feature many of
these top prospects in their first taste of NBA action, along with other recent
high draft picks, as well as undrafted rookies and free agents hoping to make
their mark.

Last summer, both the Golden State Warriors (29-13, 0.690)
and the Suns entered the inaugural NBA Summer League Championship game
undefeated at 6-0. The Warriors, behind Ian Clark’s 33-point MVP performance, finished
with a perfect 7-0 record and captured the inaugural Summer League Championship
with a 91-77 victory over the Suns. Clark, who was not drafted by an NBA team
in 2013, went on to sign with the Utah Jazz, and spent the entire 2013-14
season on the team’s roster.

NBA TV will televise Samsung NBA Summer League games from
Las Vegas with a complete schedule of games and broadcast information to be
released at a later date. Additionally, fans will once again be able to watch,
via a subscription-based package, every Samsung NBA Summer League game live on
NBA.com and on the NBA Summer League app.

Samsung, the
official handset, tablet, and television provider of the NBA, Women’s National
Basketball Association (WNBA), and NBA D-League (NBA D-League), joins as the
title partner of NBA Summer League for the first time this summer.
